A. A. Allen is one of the most controversial figures from the Voices of Healing movement in the 1950s. While having a thriving ministry that produced thousands of salvations and incredible supernatural healings, he was found dead in his hotel room from alcohol poisoning. Many have questioned how a man who struggled with a sin that ultimately killed him could have genuinely been used by God in ministry. How could he have truly moved in miracles and the power of God? And yet we have seen the grace of God on the lives of many movers and shakers in the kingdom who struggled with sin.

Madame Jeanne Guyon was one of the most important figures of the 1600s-1700s, not only in France, but throughout Europe. The Reformation had ended nearly 100 years prior, but much of the world continued to believe that the common people could only approach God through priests. Mystics like Madame Guyon, Brother Lawrence, and Miguel de Molinos taught that each individual could come to God through the intimacy of personal prayer. This teaching branded them as heretics.

Even for the religious, life is full of questions: What is faith? Can my life be more satisfying? How can I deepen my walk with Christ? What does it mean to be happy? These bubble and boil underneath the surface of our everyday life. And though we ignore them, we know they point us to realms of wisdom or even mystery—to something more. Author Mark Buchanan asked these same questions. "I want more, God," he prayed—and the answer was more than he was looking for.

Gone are the days of legendary men like Daniel Boone. There are still heroes, yes, of course, but not like those early pioneers who risked everything to go to lands completely unknown and untamed in search of a home. These brave men and women went literally into the darkest hearts of land and faced constant death on every side in an incredibly unique period of time.

Rev. William Branham was born in the Spring of 1909 into the poorest of families, deep in the hills of southern Kentucky. When he was a young boy, his family moved from Kentucky to southern Indiana, where he would live the majority of his life. Soon after moving to Indiana, the voice of God spoke to him from a whirlwind and told him, "Don’t you never drink, smoke, or defile your body in any way. There’ll be a work for you to do when you get older".

There are many editions of the writings of St. Francis, and many biographies about him, but here in one volume are both, plus the complete text of the late medieval work The Little Flowers, which did more to establish the legend of the man than any other work. This edition includes the complete Road to Assisi, Paul Sabatier's groundbreaking and foundational biography of the saint, first published in French in 1894; the complete Francis in His Own Words: The Essential Writings; and The Little Flowers, thus offering the best introduction to St. Francis yet available between two covers.

The book that you have found is not just a book. It is a treasure that has been virtually hidden and forgotten for over 100 years. The Welsh revival is one of the most famous and impactful revivals in modern history. However, there has been very little written on it by actual eyewitnesses because of the belief that no person should take any credit for what happened.

Charles Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, pastored the Metropolitan Tabernacle for 38 years, and spent many of those years in a state of powerful revival. Multitudes came from all over the world to hear him speak. His average Sunday morning services hosted up to six thousand people listening intently to the Word of the Lord. While it is fairly common today to see churches of thousands, in some places there seems to be one on every street corner, back in Spurgeon’s day, it was nothing short of miraculous.

When one listens to a true story of a life like that contained in this book, it would be easy to think that the person must be a hero, or a legend unlike any other. In most cases, this would be true. However, in the case of the Oregon Trail, Ezra Meeker was just one of hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children who travelled the treacherous 2,170 mile long road that claimed, according to Meeker, a number of lives that will never truly be known.

Hudson Taylor was one of the greatest, most effective Christian missionaries in the past several centuries, and changed the nation of China forever for the glory of God. He lived a life of extreme sacrifice and spent many years suffering for souls.

There are few people who have so given their lives for the lost like Jonathan Goforth (1859-1936). His impact on China is undeniable. His ministry was characterized by dedication, resilience, and a deep commitment to sharing the message of Jesus Christ. As a young man, he experienced a profound spiritual awakening during a revival meeting, which marked the beginning of his lifelong devotion to spreading the truth of Jesus. Jonathan Goforth's life story is a testament to the transformative power of faith, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to the call of God.

There have been many revivals throughout history. Some being so small and contained to a specific area that they have never found their way into the history books, like that of an unreached tribe deep in the jungles of Brazil reached by a small team of missionary students, to the mighty rushing winds recorded in rural churches of Alaska. But very rarely do revivals come with such a fiery spreading and global impact as the Azusa Street Revival, which took place from 1906 to 1908.

A young man named Ken discovers a deep passion for the newfound work of forestry, a controversial new government branch being established in the young United States, especially in the West. Ken is sent to a rural town in deep Arizona to begin the initial studies of the local forests when he stumbles across an illegal logging operation that is wiping out the trees and ruining the land. The local authorities are teeming with corruption, and the Department of Forestry is seen as a joke and a governmental overstep by the people.

The work of almost every branch of what has been called the “faith movement” today, can be traced back to one person (led by the Holy Spirit of course). That person is George Muller. A poor, humble man who made the incredible decision to dedicate his entire life to proving that God was in his day (and ours), still the same God of the Bible who hears and answers prayer in real, tangible ways.

There are many legends about the great Davy Crockett. In the movies people claim he could ride lightning, leap over rivers and fight wildcats with his bare hands. In the 2004 movie The Alamo, it is suggested that he was more cowardly than the legends, and if it was his choice, he would “slip over the wall” and escape. They also suggest that he only wore his famous coon skin caps because the actor who portrayed him did. Other stories claim he was an absolutely fearless warrior who loved a good fight.

He gives incredibly valuable details about how he operated in those revivals, the strategies he used to bring them about, his response to the constant controversies surrounding him, and much more. This book is, without a doubt, one of the greatest treasures in church history.

This book has one goal in mind, to try and bring greater understanding between two dedicated groups of Christians. Dispensationalists and Reformed Christians have a very different understanding of how God has worked in this world as well as how God will continue to work. There is a theological divide that has developed after many years of discussion and stems from a mixture of ignorance; misunderstanding and actual disagreement.
